Overwatch Gamescom 2017 Junkertown new map REVEAL

OVERWATCH fans are treated to a first look at the brand new Junkertown map from Gamescom 2017.

The release of the Junker Queen will have to wait until after the launch of the Junkertown map, which is currently being tested in the PTR (Public Test Realm) on PC.

A full release date is yet to be announced, but maps typically stick around the PTR for a few weeks.

"Junkertown is an Escort map located in the harsh and unforgiving Australian Outback," the official description explains.

"Constructed from the remains of a destroyed omnium, it's now the home to a band of lawless scavengers known as the Junkers, led by their cutthroat Queen.

"When they aren’t pillaging the omnium's skeleton for anything of value, the Junkers blow off steam in the Scrapyard—a massive gladiatorial arena whose combatants fight for glory, riches...and to survive."

The news comes as Overwatch player Jay "sinatraa" Won reportedly signs a professional contract worth $150k a year.

Sinatraa, who is part of the North American Overwatch World Cup Team, is said to have signed with NRG Esports, according to ESPN.

In addition to his salary, the professional Overwatch player will be entitled to 50% of team bonuses.
